On-tap 7/6/2014 at Battleship Brewhouse in Fall River, MA served in a US tumbler glass.
A: The beer is a deep coppery brown color, with a short off-white head that fades quickly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains strong an odd fruitiness that I can’t place. There is also honey, berries, caramelized malts and a touch of hops.
T: The taste starts out sweet with flavors of dark fruit, honey and caramel. Then a hearty but not too heavy malt character comes in. The hops presence is very mild and creates a decent balance. The after-taste is slightly sweet.
M: Crisp and a little smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.
O: A little tasty, goes down ok, not too filling, decent kick, odd representation of style, there are definitely better beers in the style.
